Directed by Hansal Mehta and starring Kareena Kapoor, the film promises to be a gripping experience for audiences.

The teaser encapsulates the film’s eerie and suspenseful tone, showcasing Kapoor's character grappling with personal grief while navigating a maze of suspects in a tight-knit community.

In a 2023 interview with a news portal, Kapoor revealed that her portrayal of the detective was inspired by Kate Winslet's character in Mare of Easttown. "I love Mare of Easttown, and when Hansal approached me, I was excited about the opportunity. We've shaped the character with some influence from that role," Kapoor explained.
Alongside Kapoor, the cast includes Ash Tandon, Ranveer Brar, and Keith Allen. In addition to The Buckingham Murders, Kareena Kapoor is set to star in Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again. The film, which also features Ajay Devgn, Arjun Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, and Ranveer Singh, is the third installment in the successful Singham franchise, following Singham (2011) and Singham Returns (2014).
